Can an API be created for lightspeed retail to integrate with sendbottles.com?
After trying ecom and shopify for an omni channel experience for my customers it has been a costly disaster for many reasons. I only have myself and a part-time helper to run a growing retail pet supply store so these solutions were just too time intensive and the learning curve was too high as I have a lot of other things to keep up as the owner. I am now going to start using a company called sendbottles.com to manage the recurring special orders more efficiently and that means that I will need a way to keep track of the inventory that is in Lightspeed retail. I was very disappointed with using Accumula for the shopify site. It didn't work very well and they kept wanting more money for the monthly subscription, which is just not financially feasible right now. Is there any way to create an API for my unique situation so that the inventory and sales that will be handled by Bottle will be integrated back to Lightspeed and changes in lightspeed (price, count, etc.) will be integrated to Bottle?

Hi @Christine Kelly Dawson, an integration with sendbottles.com using the Lightspeed Retail API could potentially be built, depending on how data can be accessed on their end, but this would require a third party developer.
Here are links to some of our integration partners:
And this is where the documentation for using the Retail API can be found: https://developers.lightspeedhq.com/retail/introduction/introduction/
